## org.mule.module.json
Class JsonExpressionEvaluator

    java.lang.Object
      org.mule.module.json.JsonExpressionEvaluator

All Implemented Interfaces:
  ExpressionEvaluator, NamedObject

    public class JsonExpressionEvaluator

extends Object
implements ExpressionEvaluator

An expression evaluator to allow users to define json expressions in their mule configuration, i.e. `#[json:person->addresses[0]->postcode]` See the `JsonData` object for mor information about the query syntax. It is also possible to use this evaluator in `ExpressionFilter` objects. For example a filter could be defined as - `#[json:person->registered]` Where 'registered' is a boolean value. It is also possible to filter on the existance of a value i.e. `#[json:person->favouriteColour]` Which would return true if 'favouriteColour' has been set. This evaluator also dds two logic operators you can use to create more sophisticated boolean expressions; equals and not equals - `#[json:person->favouriteColour == red]` or `#[json:person->favouriteColour != brown]`
